@jan Man,
Without a doubt, that was mine too!
I spent nearly a year searching. I used a USDA program called the US Web Soil Survey. With it, you can draw a polygon around the area of interest, click a button, wait a minute or so, and it will give you a breakdown of what soil types are in that area.
My place came back as “Agriculturally Significant.” It was a working farm until the previous owners bought it. Then for 30 years they let it go to seed. Been using the livestock to bring it back.
It also has water. More water than I know what to do with! At times, water will be coming out of the ground like a drinking fountain.
After that, I dunno, there are so many books I have that taught me a lot.
A good set of boots, or fixed blade knife. I have a scythe that is better than the gas powered weed wacker.
